About Me

Just a crazy German guy who wants to travel the world and to meet all sorts of new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet up with new people, make new friends all around the world and I want to get to know different local cultures, traditions and ways of living.

Music, Movies, and Books

Actually, I like to listen to a lot of different music. My favourite genre is electronic music but I also listen to reggae, rock, indie, jazz and basically every song which goes along well with a bonfire.

I have to admit that I am not a huge book reader but I've read the Harry Potter series and The Lord of the Rings which are both incredible. I also really enjoy some of Dan Brown's bestsellers (Diabolus, Inferno, Origin). Besides books, I'm really interested in psychology magazines.

In terms of movies, I can watch basically everything. From action to comdey, drama, romance, fantasy, si-fi or documentary. I am a huge fan of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy. Movies with a huge plot twist at the end are one of my favourites as well. I also like to watch horror movies but I rather make fun of the characters' poor choices than getting scared. :D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It is really hard for me to pick just one thing but I think I have a good one: A good friend of mine and I did a roadtrip in South Africa. We started at the east coast in Durban and drove all the way to the south coast, passed Port Elizabeth and arrived at the Blouekranz Bridge, the highest bungee jump bridge in the world. Of course we wanted to do the jump. So standing there at the edge of the bridge, looking down 200 meters straight and having the courage to just jump down gave me one of the biggest adrenaline rushes I have ever had and it's for sure an experience I will never forget.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am able to teach you German and English. I can teach you how to cook some traditional German dishes and I can share some scouting trivia if you are interested in that.
